Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

The entire display area is divided into three areas: dry product area, cold and fresh product area and fresh product area.

Not to mention Zhao Ping and Ahe, Zhao Qin now felt like Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden. Although he had a small fortune in his previous life, he had never participated in an auction, not to mention that this was like an auction of top-quality seafood.

The three of them went to the dried product area first.

"Brother, this abalone is really big."

"Brother, how much does this sea cucumber cost per pound? Why is it different from the one we caught?"

"Shut up, there's no introduction written on the sign next to it. Read it yourself." Zhao Qin glared at Ahe angrily. Why did this kid act like a curious baby?

The most eye-catching thing in the dried products section is the large yellow croaker gelatin, which weighs 1 and a half kilograms, but there are only a dozen of them. This shows that the yellow croaker that produces the gelatin itself is not small. It is quite difficult to collect more than one kilogram. .

The yield of fresh isinglass when dried is not large. Generally, one pound of fresh gelatin can produce six taels of dried gelatin.

Next is the cold and fresh food section. The things here are richer. Many of them have never been seen by Zhao Qin, such as an Eastern star grouper weighing more than 17 kilograms and a black anchovy weighing more than 60 kilograms. What does Zhao Qin think of it? It looks familiar.

"Ah Qin, this one seems to have been caught by you, right?" Zhao Ping also thought it looked familiar. The key is that the weight is exactly the same as Zhao Qin's.

"It's the one you caught. I asked just now. I sold it to a local boss, and he put it up for auction." Chen Dong had just met him, and after asking around, he got the news. He kept talking from time to time. Looking at Zhao Qin.

"Brother Dong, we make our own reasonable profits. It has nothing to do with us how much others make."

"Oh, if I had known that the threshold was so low, we would have kept this one."

Zhao Qin smiled and said nothing more.

They saw a large yellow croaker again, weighing 10 kilograms. It was considered a giant fish. Seeing this tail positioned so far forward, the four of them sighed in unison.

After moving around the fresh food area, there is the new live area, with rows of fish tanks, making it look like an aquarium.

Zhao Qin actually saw freshwater goldfish. Before he could ask, Chen Dong explained: "The market for ornamental fish here has always been huge. Beautiful species can be sold for [-] to [-] yuan each."

"Is there a place to catch this thing?" Zhao Qin was excited. One tail costs twenty to thirty thousand. If you can catch three or five tails every day, it will be more fun than rushing to the sea.

"They are all cultivated by enthusiasts themselves. There will definitely not be any in the wild. Just accept your thoughts." Chen Dong still didn't know what he was thinking.

There are more varieties in the fresh area, including a small green dragon weighing more than two kilograms, blue crabs weighing more than three kilograms, abalone as big as Zhao Qin’s before, and a rattle snail weighing more than nine kilograms.

Zhao Qin's eyes were filled with excitement. He didn't want to take a picture, but he was thinking about why he didn't catch such a big thing by himself.

There are also a lot of fish, which is an eye-opener for three people who go out to sea every day.

"Brother, there is food over there."

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go."

There was a tea break nearby. The three of them occupied a small table without any courtesy. Then each person held a big plate and looked at the delicious food. Seeing Zhao Ping filling the fried rice with eggs, Zhao Qin said angrily: "Brother. , didn’t you have enough to eat in the morning?”

"This looks delicious."

"Eat the expensive ones, otherwise you'll be in trouble." In the final analysis, Zhao Qin is still a very secular person in his heart, and he is a bastard if he doesn't take advantage of it.

When Chen Dong saw the three of them eating and drinking as if no one else was around, Chen Dong had the idea of ​​drawing a clear line with them for the first time.

"Brother, why didn't I see our fish?"

Zhao Qin pointed to the piece next to him, "Well, put it together with the tuna, in a separate area."

He had noticed a long time ago that the bluefin tuna was not big, weighing about one or two hundred pounds, so the price was probably not too high.

Although the quality of bluefin tuna has little to do with its size, it is undeniable that larger fish sell for better prices.

"Are you full? You can enter the venue. The auction will begin immediately." Chen Dong came over and said.

Zhao Qin looked at him and said with a smile: "Brother Dong, you have to be free and easy as a human being. If you want to eat and drink, why should you care too much about other people's eyes? By the way, you are in charge of the meal at noon, right?"

Chen Dong was still thinking about what he said in the first half of the sentence, which seemed to make sense. However, the twist in the second half of the sentence almost made him flinch.

"In charge of the food." He replied angrily.

"Well, big brother, Ah He, don't eat, otherwise you will be starved of food at noon."

Entering the auction house, their seats were pretty good, they were near the middle. After a while, the host came on stage. A man and a woman looked familiar. When Chen Dong said that, Zhao Qin remembered that they were the two leading hosts from his own provincial station.

Gee, this shabby chamber of commerce is really rich.

After chatting casually, the leader of the Chamber of Commerce gave a speech. The other party was very understanding and did not make a long speech. The auction started in less than five minutes.

The appetizer was the blue crab weighing more than three kilograms, which was finally bought by a local boss for 1800 yuan. One kilogram was nearly 600 yuan, which was outrageous.

Then there was the big abalone weighing nearly two kilograms, which was bought by a boss from Guangdong Province for 4600 yuan.

The pace is quite fast. After all, there are a lot of items to be auctioned. The first few items are not very valuable, and they are usually sold at a fixed price of two or three times.

At 11:40 in the morning, the auction lasted for two hours, and about [-] different items were auctioned. As the morning session came to an end, the auctioneer announced that the big tuna would be auctioned.

This time the bidding was more intense, and it was finally sold at a price of 78.

The person who caught that big tuna was an ocean-going boat in this city. The owner of the boat even came on stage to say a few words of thanks. It was nothing more than thank you for everyone's support and thank you to the Chamber of Commerce for providing such a platform.

We had a buffet for lunch, which Zhao Qin liked very much. Firstly, there were many dishes, and secondly, it felt comfortable.

The four of them occupied a small table and chatted while eating. Ah He was like a diligent little bee, bringing a bunch of dishes over from time to time.

"This is not how you eat at a buffet. First, pick a few and taste them. You can feel which ones have the highest value and which ones are delicious. Then we will focus on them."

Chen Dong looked at him angrily, "Aqin, this meal is free, you didn't pay for it."

"Oh, yes, I forgot."

Soon after the meal, everyone entered again and the auction continued.

After taking a few pictures, I finally arrived at the big yellow fish maw, and the competition became fierce, and it was finally bought for 16 yuan.

At almost four o'clock, the sea goods were almost empty, and everyone knew that the real highlight was coming.

"The next thing I want to take a photo of is the yellow-lipped fish weighing 156 kilograms and 4 taels. The yellow-lipped fish, also known as the golden catfish, is a unique fish species along the border of our country. Its isinglass is better than ginseng in replenishing qi and blood, especially for the liver and kidneys. It has a very good nourishing effect,

Yellow-lipped fish maw has a long history of being used as medicine. It can even cure pregnant women’s hemorrhage during childbirth..."

"The bidding starts now, the starting price is 30 yuan, and each bid is no less than 5000 yuan."

As the auctioneer's words ended, the fierce competition expected by Zhao Qin and the others did not appear. Instead, the venue became colder than before. In the past ten seconds, no one raised a placard.

"Brother Dong, what's going on?"

"Don't worry, the more this happens, the more it means that there are many people who are determined to win, and are waiting and watching in the hope of winning with one blow." After Chen Dong finished speaking, he raised the sign, "40."
